I have wordpress, and I use the genesis (studiopress) framework. I REALLY like the look and feel of BBpress, but I was playing around with it and I noticed that it said “Theme does not support bbpress” or something like that on the admin page.

My question is this: Does the Genesis connect plugin fix this? Or is there special coding needed to make genesis (or a child theme) work with the BBpress platform?

I really wanted to keep my blog design the same, and BBpress would allow me to do this nicely, while adding an elegant (and simplistic) way for people to discuss topics.

I’m able to get a user to register just fine, (I tested it myself) but once I’m logged in as a different user, it doesn’t allow me to see the forum. I’ve got screen shots I can share, but not sure how to upload here.
